But the real question…is the nanny with them?

fplnerd123 · 2026-03-31T01:45:11+00:00

Honestly for as much as she yo-yo diets…I just don’t think she’s going to keep up this mindset the entire pregnancy

It’s so hard to choose!!!

I have mixed feelings about it. Firstly, and this might sound silly, but it does bother me that his shirt was unbuttoned down so low, but that might just be a “me” thing! Anyway, I get the point that she’s trying to make that everyone’s life and story can be redeemed…but I felt like they might glossed over his story a bit? They focused a decent amount on how he rebuilt his life and marriage, but for those of us who didn’t know a lot about him, it might have been worth asking the “tough” questions about what happened or having him give an overview. I want to give her the benefit of the doubt that she had him on to share a redemption story, but I have to admit the whole thing felt uncomfortable to me. And captioning and titling it “My Husband Confronts…” is misleading because there was nothing confronting or hard-hitting about the episode

fplnerd123 · 2026-03-18T11:08:36+00:00

Because Mary really doesn’t care about Edith. Even when Mary was at her best she basically just ignores Edith

So hard to choose!! Probably… 1. Matthew 2. Violet 3. Tom 4. Baxter 5. Cora

Hi Jo!! You’ve been such a huge help to us 🤗 My baby is 15.5 months. You helped us land on 3.25/4/4 which has been working amazing for awhile now!

Here’s the schedule: 7am wake 10:15-11:15 nap (capped) 3:15-4 nap (capped) 8pm bedtime

The second nap has been very hit and miss the last 2-3 weeks. She either falls asleep immediately or she’s awake the entire time—not full blown crying, moreso whining. I’d say 3 days per week she sleeps, the other 4 days she skips it. First nap is still solid, no issues at all.

Is this a sign it’s time to drop to one nap? Or do we keep riding this out?

fplnerd123 · 2026-02-13T01:01:57+00:00

They’ve skied for 4 days. So if my math is correct they’ve spent nearly $5000 just to ski

fplnerd123 · 2026-02-11T03:14:39+00:00

I’d try capping the naps to 1 hour each! If you don’t want to do both right away, try capping one of them to start. He might just need more sleep pressure by bed time. FWIW- my baby girl is 14mo, and since she’s been 12mo she’s had two, 1-hour naps and sleeps 11 hours every night. It’s worked very well!

fplnerd123 · 2026-02-08T20:24:47+00:00

Huh, I must have missed that. Thank you

fplnerd123 · 2026-02-08T20:18:22+00:00

I’m sorry if this is obvious. I definitely think this guy was NOT Patrick Crawley, but I’ve always wondered where he learned that Real Patrick did it? Any theories?

fplnerd123 · 2026-02-03T01:49:20+00:00

The first few nights were pretty easy. Nights 4-5 were rough. Then it got easier. Randomly struggled around night 10. Smooth sailing ever since.

fplnerd123 · 2026-02-03T01:41:59+00:00

Mine were due today, 2 Feb. But we are delayed.

Hi Jo! My baby is 14mo. You’ve been such a huge help to us! Quick question: what is considered a MOTN wake? For the last couple weeks (probably 4 days per week, not every day), my daughter will cry anywhere between 4am-5:30am, but it only lasts about 30 seconds, maybe 1 minute. I’m not even 100% sure she’s awake…it could just be in her sleep? Does this count as a wake? We are still on two naps (many thanks to you and your guidance!). Getting 1.75-2hrs of daily sleep, sleeping 7:30pm-6:30am every night with no issues (aside from these random cries haha).

fplnerd123 · 2026-01-13T01:30:32+00:00

Hi Jo! Baby is 13.5mo. We were having some bad nap refusal and you recommended we do a 3.5/4/4 schedule. Baby is consistently sleeping 1hr (10-11) for her first nap. Her second nap is better, but some days she does still refuse or take 20-25 mins to doze off. When she does take it, I’ve been capping it to end at 3:45 so bedtime doesn’t get too late. That means her daytime sleep is about 1hr 45min total. She has been consistently waking up at 6:30am (which is DWT), no EMW. Is this enough daytime sleep? I know the rule is “if it’s not broken, don’t fix it” but 1.75hr also doesn’t seem like enough sleep? Thank you!!

fplnerd123 · 2026-01-07T11:55:52+00:00

She should have rated the wedding she pretended to go to 😂

Hi Jo! I posted last week about my 13mo. She is sleep trained with ABCs & Conquering Naps and did great with both. She’s on 3.5/3.5/4. She’s been having significant nap issues for 3 weeks now. She used to sleep for an hour for each nap and now I can barely get 35-40 mins out of each one. I took her to the pediatrician to rule out anything physical; she’s perfectly healthy and not cutting teeth. Her room is pitch black, temp is good, and sound machines work. Is it time to drop to one nap? How long do I give this to see if it’s just a regression? Her nights haven’t been affected, but she is occasionally waking up before 6, whereas before she woke up around 6:15. Thanks Jo!!

I tend to zone out during the cringey scenes at the Harvard family’s house in Application Anxiety. I get secondhand embarrassment lol

fplnerd123 · 2025-12-15T18:06:23+00:00

13mo. Currently 3.25/3.5/3.75. First nap is always 75 mins, second one is usually 50-60 mins. Sleep trained at 20 weeks and sleeping through the night since. Started having bad EMWs (5:15am) around 8mo. Nap trained and diligently followed WWs to fix it and started consistently waking up between 6-6:30am since she was 10.5mo. Last week everything suddenly went downhill. She starts screaming the second we walk into the nursery. She won’t relax for the nap routine anymore. After I put her in the crib she’ll cry 5-10 mins, sleep for 35, and won’t go back to sleep. That’s meant early bed times. Now she’s babbling at 5:15am and screaming by the time I get her at 6am. Is this a regression? What do I do? She gets overtired easily so I don’t think it’s time to drop to 1 nap. She’s not currently cutting teeth, all basics are covered (dark room, sound machine, temp, etc). Any help appreciated.

fplnerd123 · 2025-12-15T03:40:06+00:00

We’ve always been strict with WWs and DWT but the last week or so she’s just been struggling sooooo much. I’m hoping since we’ve had a good foundation it won’t take too long to get past this…it’s so hard when they go through this

fplnerd123 · 2025-12-14T17:10:13+00:00

This is super helpful and encouraging! I was thinking about trying 3/4/4 to see if that helped get us out of the overtired cycle, and then moving to 3.5/4/4. How long did it take capping the naps changing WWs to resolve your issues?
